Pathetic Sight Of “Add Me” Community
Wow, sorry for being a pessimist, but [info]__addme has to be the stupidest community I’ve ever seen.

First off, I’m not being sexist at all, but there are only girls active in that community whatsoever. In the twenty latest posts not one is done by a male, all by females. Not only that, but they can’t capitalize for anything! Almost every single girl that’s posted doesn’t use capitals. That’s the one reason I wouldn’t want them to be on my friend’s list, because they can’t type correctly for squat.

In a note of random humor, that sentence up there--“not one is done by a male, all by females”--Word doesn’t seem to like it, because it suggests this instead:

“--posts a male, all by females, does not one.”

Yeah, that’s pretty random if you ask me. So am I, so I can’t talk, heh, but continuing with my rant on this stupid community.

I’m being kind of mean here, but this girl’s trying to be cool by talking in third person; not working for me. Then we have this incredibly remedial person, who promoted a community when the most obvious rule is stated in the user info. She should be banned, for sure. This chick just grosses me out, to measures I don’t even want to speak of; Edit: she just deleted the entry, probably realizing my comment was truthful, score! Moreover, this Chelsea girl is probably the reason I started this rant-post. I mean, she uses no capitals for her sentences yet she says she “dislikes incorrect grammar.” Well, what are you doing there?

I think I’m just going to leave the community, only because I don’t think I’d want to add a girl user who doesn’t give any type of logic in her comments, just, “ooh, that’s cool!” I’d prefer people like [info]glowing_dragon, [info]shameinyou, or [info]lazeesod, who can give reasonable arguments when necessary, are mature, and who I know can be trusted with crucial information. Besides, I have all the users I need on my friends list right now. Why venture out for new users when your true friends (even online) are already in your midst?

I agree! But to be honest, that girl makes me feel great about myself.

Hmmm, THAT girl talking in 3 person. Ha, I don't think its "cool", i just like the way its sounds. Im trying out different perspectives. I like writing, and im experimenting with different writing styles and how they sound. Im a book nerd. =)

ha i'm guilty of the no capitalization thing..i don't like to. i think it's from keyboarding class. those stupid exercises made you reach for them and spell these nonsense words and i just grew to hate it. i do capitalize certain things though which i think makes up for it..

..i don't know i wanted to comment since i haven't..

Like the:

haha... those are fun. That's one of the tests that we had to do, I think; something like that. I got 106 WPM once ;). Now I average 80-90, depending on what I get on accuracy.

Heh, you're not lame, just improper sometimes, but that's perfectly fine.

Chris likes to talk in 3rd person too. It makes him feel superior.

i pretty much never use capitals. i'm lazy. plus if i capitalize one thing, that means i have to capitalize another and i can't type as fast that way.

[info]pianodude34
2005-05-15 06:22 am UTC (link)
Yeah... occasionally if someone has a style of never using capitals ever, then it's cool, or if they make it look good. Most of the time it just looks gramatically incorrect, and dare I say, "lazy," but that's okay. It just annoys me when preppy, ditzy girls do it (and you're obviously not ditzy).

Doncha just hate communities that have no point wat so ever? One thing that really irritates me is people that don't write correctly,lol. I know when people are just messing around, but people that can't spell right, and don't even try are the ones that annyo me. I know I mis-type on my comments, but that's because on my phone, it doesn't show all of what I'm writing, so my typo's are in the blank areas. Plus, it's hard to write on this tiny thing ;)

I know how your phone doesn't always let you type correctly, don't worry, I understand what you mean most of the time, heh. I want a Sidekick II so bad, I'm way jealous (even though you have the original Sidekick!). Pointless communities are way stupid.

Ha ha, I guess I'm elitist in that I hate communities like that. I just don't want complete strangers reading my journal, I mean, unless I get to know them through other places like RQ, or some other community. But I don't want 200 friends either, so yeah. I'm just really picky and selective. :)

Aww I'm glad I'm your friend Chris

It made me sad when you took me off your list but I knew it was probably because I deleted my lj for a time being.

I agree. However, my typing is pretty much just habit. If it weren't for all those computer classes in middle/high school, I'd probably be the typical lazy typer. For me, it takes more effort to not capitalize or punctuate than it does to type properly... what's the point, then, eh?

Hey, just wanted to let you know - I'm going to be making most of my entries "friends only" for certain reasons which I'll explain later. Of course you are on my Friends list, Chris, but if, for any reason, anyone ELSE wants to be friended, leave me a post with my most recent entries that you can actually see. Have a good weekend, everyone! :)
